@peterbreuer.bsky.social Früher habe ich #SCSI-Adapter selbergelötet und gecrimped. Und Adapter für die serielle Schnittstelle, Nullmodems usw.

Great, the routing for the 53C80 / '133-free #MiSCUSI (#Apple2 #SCSI yada yada) has been completed.

There are some things I want to tweak now, then the fill zones to prepare and tidy up, but I expect the prototype to be ready for a production test within the week.

But this is enough retroing for today: loads of other work to do before the end of the day.

Open source A4091/A4092 software package: Version 42.37

For ReA4091, the open source replica of Commodore's Fast SCSI2 controller A4091, as well as for its modern successor A4092, an open source software package is also available, which includes AmigaOS drivers, a ROM image, a test program and software for debugging the driver.

Hey #DuckDuckFedi
Ich brauche mal euren Input, werft mir alles zu, was euch einfällt.

Ich habe einen #Nikon #Coolscan III (LS-30) und ein Windows XP. Windows erkennt den Scanner (offizieller Treiber von der "CD", im Device Manager wird der angezeigt, der SCSI Controller wird als Generischer SCSI Controller angezeigt).

Der Scanner funktioniert in #VueScan (Trial) und scant da Bilder korrekt. NikonScan 3.1.2 erkennt den Scanner nicht, zeigt nur, dass er keinen Scanner finden kann.

Hat irgendwer eine Idee was ich probieren könnte? SCSI ID ist 6. Bringt VueScan seine eigenen Treiber mit?

Finally, the #MiSCUSI is released!
https://codeberg.org/hkzlab/MiSCUSI_AppleII

For the newcomers, it's a rebuild of the Apple II #SCSI card, made with SMD components.

Tested it on my #Delta Apple //e clone with a #BlueSCSI

Thanks to #PCBWay for sponsoring this,and thanks to @DosFox for testing the PLD dumps on his card!

As usual, if you like my projects and have some credits to spare, you can throw me a few via Ko-Fi. It's not strictly necessary, but all go towards the next projects (instead of using what's left after I have fed and medicated the cat colony I inherited...).

MiSCUSI_AppleII

Minified re-implementation of the Apple II SCSI card with SMD components.

Some bodging to rectify my fuckup and...
The MiSCUSI (#Apple2 #SCSI card) works!!!

Which means that I just need some minor rerouting and I can get ready for a rev.1 release. And then for a 53C80 (MUCH easier to obtain) release too!

A4092: A modern successor to the A4091 SCSI-2 controller

The term "A4092" has already come up in connection with the software package for the open-source recreation of Commodore's Fast-SCSI2 controller A4091. Now, this equally open-source, completely redesigned Zorro III SCSI-2 controller for the Amiga 4000 and Amiga 3000 is officially unveiled at the title link with the promise: "Everything you need, nothing you don’t."

Last update for couple of days, checked the software and we seem to be missing most packages. I have now downloaded the most recent software release so let's see if we can upgrade.

Problem with upgrading is, you need a SCSI CD-Rom drive

#cdrom #scsi #software #hpux

Image created, no lost or bad blocks, we have an image we can always recover now
